Where do i start? Ped from the ground up!

Ok, so Ive been looking for a ped for a while, and Ive had a hard time. I have 200 bucks to spend on one, and thats it (for now) Anyway, i got really excited because my friend who does bike rally's and stuff in town, said a guy he worked with had a tomos for 200 bucks.

Well, turned out the guy wanted more along the 400 dollar range, and now im bummed again..

BUT Jimmy on here, lives very close to where i work. He was kind enough to give me a Puch Maxi frame (havent piked it up yet, prob. monday)

Anyway, i really dont know a lot about mopeds, as far as what models are good for what parts, and what things you can interchange.

What would YOU guys do with a puch frame, and 200 bucks? I'd really like to get it running b4 the rally in Cincinnati next month.

Your going to have a tough time on a budget, maybe you can luck out and find a complete bike with a rusted out frame to use as a parts bike. A maxi is the easiest and cheapest model to get parts for. Luckily you live in one of the best places to fine plenty of cheap mopeds.
